FH news Should DAOC OT Move

[Ch3tan]

The yoni thing was stupidity on both sides IMO. Childish from everyone concerned.

Other got banned shortly for things they posted that they knew would likely get them in trouble for a bit. ONly short bans. I think the infraction system works quite nicely, and that most poeple know when they are on the edge.

Also, wasn;t that irc incident over two years ago now?

dunno i remember it being ALOT of fun tho xD


as i said in the OT thread i acctaully couldn't care less i'm just jumping on other peoples arguments and backing them up or shooting them down for funsies



but on topic (ironic for offtopic folk) its makes no diff where it is, on IRC our channel was FHOT, not DAOCOT, and i can't remember that last daoc post on OT so really what is the big deal?

 

[Ch3tan]

I can't see what the big deal is, but then I never played DAOC. Some people seem actually fearful of having to mingle with other or having new blood, they think their posting style will change?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

The worry that the "feel of OTF will change" by merging with General is a bit silly IMO, look how many threads are active per day in general. It's about half a dozen. That's hardly going to ruin or change the feel or a busier forum.

If Yoni banned you or someone else then I would say it was most likely deserved, doesn't seem the sort to make hotheaded decisions at all. That said, the moderators should probably include at least one long time OT regular who is very active anyway. Will leave that to Deebs and the staff though, everyone needs to remember though that whilst we want a free and open OT we cannot allow people to run riot or go around abusing/harrassing people (certainly not beyond crossed words anyway) or the community will just implode when everyone starts taking sides. OT has a great degree of freedom but there always has to be a few rules or chaos break out and real people suffer the effects of remarks that have gone way too far.

Different atmospheres I guess, I never post in general as once I get there I just don't get the urge and want to contribute anything, seems almost alien. Spose coming on here (must be a good 8 or so years now including BW) i've still got the us vs you attitude.

Plus people get used to those around them, similiarly can be said of another board I visit where it's just a bunch of regulars in one section that seldom visit any others.

I don't often post in General, I get the feeling its a bit like an old boys club, and I'm totally aware that's probably what OT feels like to everyone else anyway.

I voted for 'move to the top level' of the forums, in the end, we probably all have OT bookmarked anyway, so I don't see how it will change anything for a lot of us, and the possibility of having more people take the piss out of Laddeys music taste is intruiging.

TDC has a brain the size of a weasel's wedding tackle

so, you're basically saying that my brain, while small, is still bigger than your penis, yes?

I think the most important question is;

Will the legal age(link) stay as 21?

Also;

Will the booby/bum threads be safe?

As a somewhat(cough) regular OT filth, i'd say that it's good as it is, but if the DAoC section is in danger of removal(can't say i'd be surprised), then a new location for the scum&villany crew would be nice. On the other hand, if it does get moved, there's little if any difference. IT'd be like the move from barrysworld, just a litt.e "ooh shiny!" and then back to your regular viewing.

All in all, to put it short; as long as the degenerate OT crew have a home, it makes little difference where that hole is located.

Or to put it in different terms; every hole is a goal

You never played DAOC? Not at all? Get the fuck out of off topic

 

[throdgrain]

DAOC is for dirty herb gatherers who avoid skill-based pc games.

Rarr!

Yeah - this is the heart of it - I admit that I feel similarly in the other direction. I still read it fairly regularly but I havent posted there much for so long that it now feels 'foreign' which is silly.

Perhaps we should all make a bit more effort - your certainly all most welcome in General - there's only so many BBC news links I can post a day or Meg gets sad

at the very least, put an alias on the front page and leave both links in place.

Totally off-topic, but I just realised 00dave has not posted in months after his shambolic showing in this thread: https://forums.freddyshouse.com/general-2/243314-james-corden-vs-patrick-stewart.html

If OTF has more people like this then it must be moved/merged! In a way I miss the total retard.

take out the people voting from general, and its 90% against.

[Billargh]

General only has like 5 people these days anyway, very few off topicers (wha?) must've voted.

Quite a substantial number of people have voted for the move (OT peeps that is) but i would say more of the OT crowd have voted against a move.
